Caitlan Coleman and Joshua Boyle libérés après cinq ans de détention par les Talibans

Plusieurs articles de médias canadiens s'intéressent à cette histoire, mais la couverture américaine pique ma curiosité. Si on met l'accent sur la captivité horrible du couple canado-américain, on laisse planer le mystère sur leurs intentions et sur le rôle que s'attribue l'administration Trump dans cette histoire. L'opération qui a mené à leur libération est le fruit d'une rare collaboration entre les services de renseignements américains et les policiers pakistanais.

 "The family’s refusal to travel to the United States led some former U.S. officials to speculate about the couple’s motives in journeying to Afghanistan five years earlier and suggest that they may be trying to avoid tough questions from U.S. intelligence officials. Other U.S. officials played down that explanation.

“The administration made very clear that if they wanted to come back to the United States there would be no problems,” said a U.S. official who is familiar with the case and was speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss dealings with the family."
